Hawaiian this month resumed a seasonal service between Honolulu and Auckland, flying three times a week until the end of April. This week the airlines launched a campaign in which fares start at US$390 ($659) one-way from Seattle or Portland via Honolulu for travel to Auckland through to April 30. ‘’Although Alaska is quite a bit bigger than Hawaiian and it’s grown a lot in the past 20 years we always have maintained a little bit of a sense of the underdog just like Hawaiian Airlines. Alaska joined Oneworld three years ago and when Hawaiian joins its passengers will be able to use their miles on member airlines including Qantas, Qatar Airways, Cathay Pacific and American Airlines. Ben Minicucci is the head of Alaska Airlines.
